On this day we will be joined by creative technologist and researcher Yasmine Boudiaf. In the morning,Yasmine will present a series of artistic research projects exploring cultural (dis)connections across time and geography using AI and anti-colonial methods. As an Algerian and a creative technologist, Yasmine explores how she and other displaced peoples could reconnect with intangible heritage, reviving and contextualising shared cultural memories as well as building new collective approaches to AI practice. This presentation spotlights three of Yasmine’s current projects: 1) An Algerian Techno-Ritual; how can auto-ethnographic visual art be made without reproducing the colonial gaze? 2) Mediterranean Hand Gestures; this interactive project uses a camera to detect hand gestures and audio to produce corresponding verbal sounds. 3) AI Justice Matrix: The Futility of Policy Craft; an online platform and collaborative authorship project that invites the perspectives of practitioners concerned with our relationship with technology.

In the afternoon we will interrogate themes from the presentation using 2D Listening Structures Yasmine developed as tools for collective imagining. As ideas travel through these structures, the nature of these ideas changes, with the output determined in the commons.
